Friday Fabric Refresh - Special Requests

Happy Friday!  For today's Friday Fabric Refresh, I am featuring some requests that were made on previous Refresh posts. 

A few fabric lines were mentioned in the comments when I posted the patriotic version of Hallowed Blooms on Instagram a couple months ago.  If you missed it, you can see that here.   

Friday Fabric Refresh - Christmas in July

Hello!  This is the time of year that the new Christmas fabric collections tend to be released.  July is also in full swing, so I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to do a Christmas in July edition of Friday Fabric Refresh!

EQ8 - The Basics Part 2

Hello!  Today I'm back to show you some more of the basics of Electric Quilt 8.  In my previous post, I focused on how to create a quilt top using quilt blocks preloaded in the software.  If you missed it, you can find it here.  Today, I am going to show you how to create your own quilt blocks.

EQ8 - The Basics Part 1

Hello!  If you follow me regularly, you've surely seen my recent Electric Quilt 8 posts by now, here and on Instagram.  You might even be intrigued about the software.  If you're like me, you probably like to know what you're getting yourself into before you commit to making an investment in something new.   Today I am going to show you some of the basics on how to create a quilt top to give you a feel for how the software works.

EQ8 - Not Just for Designers!

Hello!  If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed that I have been mentioning EQ8 a lot lately. Electric Quilt 8 is the software that I use to design my quilt patterns. I'm teaming up with the Electric Quilt Company over the next couple of months to bring you tips for using the software and some projects made in EQ8. I'm even bringing you savings if you want to get your own copy of this program (more on that in a bit!). 

You might be thinking that you don't need EQ8. You quilt as a hobby. You own more patterns written by others than you'll ever have time to make. You have no desire to design your own. Well, I'm here to show you that EQ8 is not just for designers!

Friday Fabric Refresh - Happy 4th of July!

Happy Friday!  If you are in the U.S. you know that tomorrow is July 4th, Independence Day.  You might even have today off from work like I do since the actual holiday falls on the weekend.  I thought this would be a perfect Friday for sharing some patriotic versions of a few of my patterns!
